  • Corey Graves and Carmella spoke to DAZN about their new reality show, as well as their relationship. “I don’t think anyone wants the relationship to start out the way ours did. It was a fallacy,” he said. “The facts have come out since then. It was an angry reaction and heat of the moment. Social media doing what it does. Luckily, that’s all been debunked by this point. But to start any relationship at literally the worst possible scenario. Talk about fighting from the ground up. That to me, like I said from the early goings, the fact that she didn’t run screaming into the hills, which she would have had every right to do going I don’t need this headache. I don’t need this drama. I’m the most beautiful woman in all of WWE. I can have any guy I want. But for some reason, she stuck with me, and from that point forward, I realized it’s a cliche that she’s a ride or die, but I was like this is this is my person, and I’ve gone over and above since then to protect and continue to grow this relationship from for that very reason.”
